Bot Framework Composer: Bot Framework’s new collaborative Conversational AI development environment

[@Chekmate99]

Thanks for the demo Chris! I’ve used it as a guide to successfully create a bot, deploy it to Azure using both QnA and Luis. There are some things I’ve encountered (I’m somewhat new to Azure Bot Services) - when publishing to Azure it creates a new Resource Group (I couldn’t get it to publish to an existing Resource Group) - in my case the Access Token expires daily and have to manually get a new one (login to Azure, update Bot Setting config, etc.). And in Azure, it created a Bot Channels Registration in the global Location (not West US which other services in this RG were created) - I thought it would have created a Web App Bot (not a Bot Channels Registration) - as I research more on this ill have it figured out. Thanks again as this demo literally saved me hours of manually trial/error RnD time to understand this new tool! Chris V.

Happy that it helped! The publishing and access token requirements are both something we're actively working to improve. Soon you will be able to sign-in to Azure and deploy without having to run any commands from a script or separate terminal.

Great content but the font is a bit small.

[@rupinder2222]

can u please give a demo to create custom action using node js. bcoz there is microsoft documentation for c# only not for node js. Please help me to understand this.

Hi Chris, any chance we start seeing python around the bot framework in terms of same resources available for node.js and C# ? looks like all the efforts are focused there and deploying a python bot requires lot of manual work

[@chriswhitten5848]

No planned support for this at the moment, however please bump and +1 this issue: github.com/microsoft/BotFramework-Composer/issues/1993

[@Alexandra-qw3hp]

Would be a great video, but I can't read anything on my phone screen :(

[@nanduramanjal6757]

can the bot be deployed on our own server other the azure bot service

[@kushalbhabra]

Thank you

[@bootagain]

Hi, thank you for such a great session, I just wonder that is there any problem or limits with using python instead of C# to implement this?

[@chriswhitten5848]

Composer and Adaptive Dialogs support C# only, with limited support of JavaScript

[@faiyazsayed7375]

I need to ask a simple question regarding Branch Switch in Bot Framework Composer. Who can i mail etc? Thanks in advance

[@chriswhitten5848]

Hi Faiyaz - please direct your questions to github.com/Microsoft/BotFramework-Composer

Hi , i know how to author the bot in multiple language but how to change the language of bot based on user input i tried using turn.locale but it only works for one step in a turn , then again it starts working in english

[@chriswhitten5848]

This functionality is not currently available in the Bot Framework SDK

[@sajith200588]

Can we embed this bot into a website

[@chriswhitten5848]

You sure can!

[@Chekmate99]

Hi Chris or anyone else... any guidance on how to format the output of QnA into a AdaptiveCard before it’s displayed in Bot Emulator or Teams? Or is it possible to ‘trap’ QnAMaker output in Bot Composer and reference it in a Dialog other than the QnA Maker Dialog that is predefined in Bot Composer? Thx

[@chriswhitten5848]

Can you open an issue on github.com/microsoft/BotFramework-Composer/issues ? Someone from the team will engage.
